For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Worst medication ever. On the lowest dose, I became deathly ill. I couldn't stop vomiting for a week. I could not walk because of extreme dizziness, and I could barely see from blurry vision. It also gave me the worst migraine of my life and suicidal thoughts and depression. I only lost weight because I could not eat at all and couldn't keep liquids down, so I was severely dehydrated. The side effects and long-term effects are so severe that the minor weight loss you would have from this medication is not worth it."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been on Wegovy since January 15, 2022. I have lost almost 40 lbs. When I first started, it was the usual nausea and heartburn that could always be fixed with a Pepcid AC. I have noticed now that I am past the 1.0 mg, I have been getting dizzy when I stand up, like I am about to pass out, and having a reoccurring brain/vision fogginess off and on. About 9 months in, I started to have tingling/numbness in my foot, face, and hand. Have any long-term users experienced this? I am going to get off it and see if it clears up."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Severe reaction to Zepbound, so changed to Wegovy! Doing fine on 5 mg. Mild nausea, but doing okay! Had adverse effects conflicting with venlafaxine, worked through. Definitely have had vision changes as I have had cataract surgery and vision is affected. Yes, I guess I should stop, but I have 2 more months for 6 months of RX, then will quit! Have lost a good 25 lbs."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am about 6 months in, and at 2.4 per week, I have lost 17 lbs. It does work to curb your appetite, but I always feel sick. I have noticed I have developed severe migraines after week two, but kept going. I am currently on migraine medication, Ajovy, and it is not helping. Sometimes, it comes with blurred vision, which gets a bit better once it gets closer to taking it again. I have gone to the ER three times over 6 months with severe headaches, but nothing helps. It has really impacted my way of life, and I do feel like a worse wife and mother because I am always sick and have a constant headache that never, ever goes away. I gave it a go, but at this point, the cons outweigh the pros for me. I did stop Wegovy two weeks ago and noticed an improvement in my headaches and my menstrual cycle. Headaches basically gone, why didn't I stop sooner?"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have lost 37 lbs in 3.5 months, but should be more due to the horrific side effects. Burping, belching, vomiting, diarrhea, chest pain, nausea, blurry vision, basically every side effect imaginable. I never had side effects from any medications before. I continued to increase the dose up to 1.7 mg and hope for the best with no success. I have three more weeks of misery, but due to the cost of $586, I refuse to trash this medication."
